In this video, we’re looking at all Amex Gold Card benefits and what you must do to get the most value from my favorite credit card out of all American Express credit cards. We’ll talk about both known and more hidden Amex Gold benefits that can make the Amex Gold Card worth the $250 annual fee, so if you’re wondering, “Is the Amex Platinum worth it?” then this video will show you how it can be!
The Amex Gold Card is one of the most popular and best travel credit cards out there for the right people who can get good value from the credits it has and points that this credit card earns. But there’s also so many other ways to get good value from the American Express Gold card that not everyone knows about, so I tried to cover all of those things here. In my opinion, the annual fee on this credit card is very low compared to the amount of value that some people can get from it when they know all of these details.

Another perk is there are a few arenas and stadiums that are sponsered by AMEX. I went to a Drake concert last week at Barclays Arena and AMEX card holders had a private entrance which allowed me to skip insane line. Got two free drinks, and 10% off all food purchases in the arena.

You can track your spend by going to 'Statement and Activity' > on the left side under 'Card Activity' go to 'View by Year'> Click on '2023 to Date' > scroll all the way down. I'm pretty sure the annual fee is included in that total, so just deduct that from your spend amount.

While this isn’t a new tip, but If you eat out with friends every now and then, I pay the whole bill and have them send me money accordingly. Recently we had AYCE Sushi and the bill came to about $390. At 4x points that’s 1,560 points! I do this with groceries with my siblings as well so you can really take advantage of the 4x multiplier. Making points hasn’t been easier and this card has been a blast to use!

Hi Daniel ! Just hoping you could answer a question for me . I recently got the chase sapphire preferred card . Looking to get my next card but not exactly sure which route to take. Mainly looking to maximize travel rewards as I'm wanting to travel more . Should I first complete the chase trifecta with the freedom unlimited and freedom flex . Or jump into a different card like Amex gold or Venture X . And if so what order should I go in . I'd also like to get the BILT for my $2000 rent payment .
@jyk000
@jyk000 6 ай бұрын
Complete the trifecta. You’ll have more routes to build points faster. One example, you’ll be getting 1.5x points minimum with the trifecta completed, compared to just 1x. Don’t get an Amex if you don’t need to. It’s not about collecting cards, but getting the most return from them as a whole. But, if there’s something you’d like from Amex like better airport lounges or Resy Global Dining, I’d start building the Amex Gold+Plat duo (if you can afford it!) before completing the Chase trifecta, since you may not need the trifecta if you’re holding Gold+Plat.

The Amex Gold card is definitely a card that I am seriously considering as my next card. I probably won’t apply for the Gold card until sometime in 2024 because I am getting 5% cash back on groceries with my CFU card until November. I’ve determined that spending $4,000 over the course of 6 months is attainable for me because I easily spend at least $667 per month across all my cards . My utilities, car insurance, and cell phone bills together come to pretty close the $667. When I do get a new credit card, I often use a spreadsheet to keep track of my spending toward the signup bonus. I used the spreadsheet when I got my Citi Custom Cash card late last year and my Hilton Honors card earlier this year. For some reason, the tracker that Citi has wasn’t working in my account. Anyway, I could definitely benefit from the Grub hub and Uber Eats credits every month. The Amex offers are also a nice feature on the Amex cards. I’ve already used some of the offers on my Hilton Honors card. Great video, Daniel! This video was definitely thorough in going over the many benefits of this card.

I think having cards from both setups can work pretty well! The best part is that with both Chase and Citi is that you can choose to switch between redeeming for cash back or travel whenever you want depending on what you want to do or what deals you see. But I'm gonna have a video out on the Citi trifecta very soon, I just filmed that. I'll compare all trifectas soon as well 👍 And thank you so much for watching my content!

@Daniel_Braun
@Daniel_Braun 11 ай бұрын
So it’s more of a net cost when you add things up at the end of the year. Meaning you pay $250 up front to get $20 in credits back per month from the 2 monthly credits. So at the end of the year you will have paid $250 and received up to $240 back in credits. So nothing is applied against the annual fee, it’s just a net total. Hope that makes sense!

Once you hit the spending threshold, how long does it realistically take for the bonus points to hit your account? I know Amex tells you 8-12 week, but I’ve seen many people online saying it’s usually just the next billing cycle. Or even a few days later.

I have Amex Gold Delta card. I travel a lot internationally. I book on Delta app (I live near Atlanta). Are points based on miles of trip or money spent on ticket? I don’t think I have been getting triple points?! Thanks!

I also have the delta gold card. The card agreement says “You will earn 1 additional mile (for a total of 2 miles) on each dollar of eligible purchases charged directly with Delta ("Delta Purchases").” so it’s money spent on tickets not the miles of the trip

I will also mention the regular Amex gold card is different than the Delta gold card. Regular gold gets 3x on all flights while Delta gold gets 2x on Delta flights only

Yeah like @christiec5 said, the miles earned on that card and most credit cards is based on the dollar value of the ticket

A couple questions about Authorized Users on the Amex Gold - Does it help build their credit (you did mention this in the video, but I wanted to confirm)? Will I also be able to send them a referral link when they are ready for their own primary Amex Gold or does Amex not consider that a referral?

Yes you can add them as an AU, and they are still eligible to sign up with your referral link

Would buying gift cards (let’s say a Walmart gift card or Sam’s gift card) from a Neighborhood Walmart still be able to give me 4X points on the AmEx gold card? Those are part of my daily spending habits, especially since I get gas from Sam’s.
